Chapter 1: The Embarrassing Crossing
"Tell me about the specific situation."
Gu Cheng took a deep breath, pointing to a dense thicket about four miles away in the valley. "Those two sharp-bladed wind wolves came out of that thicket. I went to investigate and found that the thicket is close to the foot of the mountain, and it seems there's a wolf den inside. Several sharp-bladed wind wolves are lurking in the nearby tree clusters. Luckily, I circled around from the top of the mountain; otherwise, as soon as I entered the thicket, I would have been discovered."
Fierce winds and sharp eyes flashed, laughing: "These sharp-bladed wind wolves are indeed cunning. Once we find the wolf's den, it will be easy to handle. Everyone, don't worry for now, let's use the old method, lure out and hunt down these sharp-bladed wind wolves one by one."
Four people nodded and waited patiently.
The bright red sun slowly rose higher, but the sharp-bladed wind wolves did not reappear. Time passed bit by bit, and the sunset finally fell below the Savage Beast Mountains. The night gradually enveloped this vast cloud wilderness.
"Damn it, did this pack of Wind Wolves discover something?"
Gao Cheng's scar on his face twitched, and he muttered a curse under his breath.
Liefeng Qianye took out dry rations and distributed them to the crowd, "Don't let your guard down, who knows if the sharp-bladed wind wolves will come out to hunt under the cover of night."
Waited for another moment, the night grew darker.
Suddenly, Lie Feng's ears twitched for no reason, and he turned around abruptly, his expression changing drastically.
"Terrible!"
At the sound of Lie Feng's cry, Lin Xiao and his three companions suddenly turned their heads back, only to find that around the mountain slope, a pair of green eyes had appeared, shining with bloodthirsty ferocity.
Under the faint moonlight, a strip of silver wolf shadow is flashing.
"Sharp Blade Wind Wolf Beast Pack!"
Five people simultaneously let out a low, fierce cry, their conditioned reflexes stimulating the Beast Blood Crystals within them, putting them on high alert and ready to fight at any moment.
"These beasts, how did they end up here?"
Luo Ling's expression was cold and detached, his voice low as he said: "The wolf den in the thicket must have another exit. Our ambush must have alerted the Sharp Blade Wind Wolves, so they came out of the other exit and surrounded us under the cover of night."
"It's indeed a group of cunning monsters, no wonder the previous beast warriors were killed."
Upon hearing Luo Ling's analysis, the five people's hearts suddenly tightened, and their hairs stood on end.
Especially Liu Kai, the cunning degree of the monster far exceeded his imagination, and he felt a chill in his heart, his body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and finally understood that what he was facing was not an ordinary beast, but a highly intelligent and ferocious monster.
The pack of Wind Wolves surrounding the five people had at least forty heads, and judging from their auras and body sizes, most were mid-to-late first-grade monsters. There were no less than ten second-grade monsters among them. The overall combat strength was far superior to that of the five people, not to mention they were currently surrounded by the monster pack, which made things even more unfavorable for them.
"Kill!"
No time for hesitation, a thousand leaves of fierce wind sounded their angry roar, and with one horse in the lead, they charged out.
Luo Ling and Gu Cheng followed with a loud shout, displaying their combat skills, and pounced on the nearest Wind Wolf Beast.
"Honk honk!"
A pack of sharp-fanged wind wolves were blown away, letting out a series of mournful howls.
However, there were too many sharp-bladed wolves, and they couldn't be defended against. No matter who it was, everyone was injured to some extent, with blood flying everywhere.
"Pffft!"
Kuang Cheng landed a punch on the waist of a first-class late-stage Wind Wolf Beast, killing it instantly.
Suddenly, another sharp-bladed wind wolf beast burst out from the slanting stab, as fast as lightning, and the sharp wolf teeth instantly pierced through Gu Cheng's arm, lifted it up, and the thick arm was cut open with a huge gash, blood splashing everywhere.
Kong's face twisted in a grimace as he let out a pained groan, summoning his last bit of strength to kick the Wind Wolf Beast flying with one foot. However, his arm was bleeding profusely, and his injury was severe.
"Break out!"
A fierce gust of wind swept through a thousand leaves, and he let out a stern cry at once.
The five of them quickly gathered together back to back, the strong winds parted like a thousand leaves, Luo Ling swung his large knife to cut off their pursuers, Lin Xiaofeng and Liu Kai protected the injured Gu Cheng, as the five of them charged up the mountain.
There are still some rocks on the mountain that can block the sharp-bladed wind wolves, but if they reach the grassland area and face a group of sharp-bladed wind wolves, they will be at an even greater disadvantage. Now they can only hope to find a cave or a dangerous place to hold out.
"Ahh~"
Suddenly, a loud wolf howl came from the top of the mountain slope.
The pack of Wind Wolves with sharp blades immediately dispersed and formed a net-like shape, surrounding them.
Lin Xiao Feng suddenly lifted his head and looked up the slope.
More than a hundred meters away, a towering and majestic Wind Wolf Beast stood proudly on a massive boulder, its body radiating a silver glow under the moonlight. Two sharp wolf fangs protruded from its front teeth, resembling two icy daggers emitting a chilling aura.
Lin Xiaofeng's eyes suddenly flashed with a fierce intent, "A mid-second-level Windwolf Beast with sharp blades, it's the leader of this group of Windwolf Beasts."
Capture the leader first, if you can take down this level 2 sharp-bladed wind wolf beast, the pack of wolf beasts will surely fall into disarray.
Just as Lin Xiaofeng thought of this, Luo Ling growled: "I'll go!"
Liefeng Qianye's face suddenly changed, and he said sternly: "No way!"
"Company Commander!" Luo Ling shouted urgently.
Fierce Wind Qian Ye said solemnly: "Your strength is only second to mine, the target is too big, besides Gu Cheng is injured, now the most important thing is to break out."
Lin Xiaofeng's heart stirred, his figure suddenly shot up from the ground and rushed towards the leader of the Wind Wolf Beast.
"I'm going to kill it!"
"Lin Xiaofeng!"
The four of them changed color in their faces.
Among the five, Lie Feng Qian Ye and Luo Ling's cultivation was the strongest, respectively in the late and middle stages of the Blood Light Realm, followed by Lin Xiao Feng and Gu Cheng, who were in the early stage of the Blood Light Realm.
Now that Gu Cheng is injured and Liu Kai's cultivation is too low, the only person who can kill the leader of the Wind Wolf Beast without attracting special attention from the Wind Wolf Beast pack is Lin Xiaofeng.
At this time, Lin Xiaofeng's figure, with the help of the rocks on the mountain slope, quickly and nimbly darted forward, and was even more agile and unpredictable than on the flat grassland.
"Crunch!"
A sharp-bladed Wind Wolf Beast came charging, and Lin Xiaofeng suddenly made a slanting strike, the weak waist of the beast snapping instantly, letting out a mournful howl as it flew horizontally out.
"Wow!"
Lin Xiaofeng's toes touched the rock, and his figure shot forward like a strong wind.
"Wah wah~"
That second-level Wind Wolf Beast saw that Lin Xiaofeng's strength was not weak, and it actually killed the Wind Wolf Beast that was blocking its way in a clean and efficient manner. It quickly rushed over and immediately let out a urgent howl.
Several secondary initial Wind Wolf Beasts immediately gave up their siege of Lie Feng Qian Ye and others, quickly intercepting Lin Xiao Feng.
Lin Xiaofeng was now filled with murderous intent, his head bowed and his body low to the ground as he employed his unique fighting technique, swiftly flashing forward on the sloping mountain side.
Suddenly, a sharp-bladed wolf-like beast darted out from the side, its razor-sharp fangs swiping past Lin Xiaofeng's chest by only two inches...
